Themes from InterviewsThemes from Interviews
• Market uncertainty• Lack of “valley of death” financing. • Streamlined funding processes• Small business support• A relative lack of entrepreneurial talent
Generation but not retention
• Very strong in other business talent—mergers and acquisitions, late stage financing
• Industry consolidation is imminent • Good infrastructure• NYC as the ultimate market
